# Managed networks and IT for businesses in Coimbra and Central Portugal

At a glance For decision-makers short on time.

- 01 Managed networks, segmented Wi-Fi and cybersecurity for clinics and firms in Coimbra.
- 02 Clinical equipment isolated by VLAN and backups with written restore tests.
- 03 Headquartered in Alfragide, support nationwide and immediate remote support.
- 04 IT Unlimited from €395/month + VAT, annual contract no lock-in.

**In a clinic or laboratory in Coimbra, a network failure does more than delay invoicing: it interrupts appointments, locks staff out of patient records and exposes health data that the GDPR treats as a special category. DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting, one of Portugal's reference providers of managed networks and IT, takes on that responsibility in a single IT Unlimited contract: managed business networks, segmented Wi-Fi, cybersecurity and backups with measured restores. Headquartered in Alfragide, with support across the country and remote, on-site and telephone support.**

## What risks does a Coimbra business face that others do not?

Coimbra's business landscape combines healthcare units, laboratories, biotech and university spin-offs with retail and services. Many of these organisations process health data, and that changes what is required of the network infrastructure.

- **Health data:** Encryption, access control and a record of who viewed what, with the ability to prove it.
- **Clinical equipment on the network:** Devices and laboratory systems that need to communicate, but with restricted access.
- **Multiple sites:** Clinics with more than one location using the same systems.
- **A continuous schedule:** Bookings and appointments that cannot wait for an engineer.

## How do we solve the region's typical problems?

### Equipment the manufacturer will not let you update

Many clinical devices run legacy systems. The answer is not to force updates but to isolate them in their own segment, where only strictly necessary traffic passes, and to monitor that segment.

### One infrastructure, three logical networks

Clinicians, clinical equipment and patients in the waiting room never share the same network. Each group has its own VLAN and rules, on the same physical infrastructure.

### Monitoring before reception notices the problem

If the booking system goes down, the waiting room is still full. That is why response times are written into the contract and monitoring detects the fault before it reaches the front desk.

### Restores measured, not assumed

The right question is not whether backups exist, but how long it takes to restore bookings and clinical records. We run periodic restore tests and report the results in writing.

## Why does segmentation start with the cable?

In healthcare, laboratories and education, a flat network is a risk. [Certified structured cabling](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/structured-cabling-installation/) is designed to separate clinical and administrative workstations, imaging equipment, access points, cameras and access control, each family on its own VLAN. Every point is certified with Fluke and documented in a report.

For [business wireless networks](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/business-wifi-installation/), we measure coverage on site and configure roaming between access points, so the session does not drop when moving between consulting rooms or classrooms. Separating networks in a building that was not cabled for it always costs more than doing it from the start.

## What is included in the managed service?

| Area | What we take on |
| --- | --- |
| Support and management | Workstations and servers, incident management and [IT Unlimited](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/it-unlimited-premium-on-site-support/) at a fixed cost, with written response times. |
| Managed networks | Certified cabling, Layer 3 switching and PoE for workstations, equipment and cameras. |
| Business Wi-Fi | Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 with separate networks for clinical staff, equipment and patients. |
| Managed cybersecurity | [Business firewall](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-firewall-services-portugal/), encryption, access management and logging, with GDPR documentation. |
| Servers and data | Virtualisation and [backups](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-backup-services-portugal/) with reported restore tests. |
| Communications | [IP phone systems](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-ip-pbx-portugal/) for reception and bookings, and CCTV. |

Distance does not reduce the service: a company in Coimbra receives the same as a client in Greater Lisbon, because most of it runs remotely and on-site support, on the Premium and Premium 365 plans, is set out in the proposal.

- **NOC and monitoring:** [servers, network, connections and backups watched from Alfragide](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/noc-it-monitoring-portugal/); 24/7 monitoring is included in Premium 365.
- **Continuity:** [RPO and RTO in writing, ready replicas and annual tests](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/disaster-recovery-services-portugal/), without depending on someone travelling with a disk.
- **Microsoft 365:** [licences, email migration, MFA and tenant backup](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/microsoft-365-management/), all done remotely.
- **Comparing models:** [IT Unlimited versus a retainer or an outsourced engineer](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/it-unlimited-vs-hour-bank-costs/), useful for comparing local proposals.

## What proof is there from projects with the same profile?

At [Clínica Lambert in Corroios](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/clinica-lambert-corroios-managed-network/), DataRoad took over the entire IT function under IT Unlimited, including network and business wireless. At [Clínica Mulher, in the Twin Towers at Sete Rios](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/clinica-mulher-clinic-network-wifi-7/), it installed 192 network points, Wi-Fi 7 and a firewall. These are the same requirements as Coimbra's healthcare units.

- **Education:** [network and support at Forward College's Lisbon campus](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/forward-college-lisbon-campus-wifi/).
- **Industry:** [the network at Magnelusa's industrial unit](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/magnelusa-industrial-structured-cabling/) and [Panike's communications infrastructure](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/panike-industrial-network-business-wifi/).
- **Public sector:** [56 Wi-Fi 7 points across three SSAP buildings](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/ssap-wifi-7-structured-cabling-public-buildings/), through a public tender.
- **Multinationals:** [Wi-Fi 6, firewall and redundant internet with failover at ReStream](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/restream-cascais-network-case-study/) and [IT Unlimited at Reltio by SAP](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/reltio-sap-apple-dell-cisco-meraki-lisbon/).
- **Hospitality:** [Wi-Fi 7 and CCTV at LX Arch Hotel](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/lx-arch-hotel-wifi-7-cctv-lisbon/) and [network and video surveillance at Ouro Rossio Hotel](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/ouro-rossio-hotel-wifi-cctv-managed-network/).

There is also an [IT infrastructure project in the car rental sector](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/klass-wagen-car-rental-network-wifi/) and the full archive of [success stories](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/case-studies/).

## What happens after you sign?

- **Survey:** a visit to the unit and an inventory, including the clinical equipment on the network, almost always more than management expects.
- **Fixed proposal:** scope, exclusions, response times, monthly fee and handling of health data.
- **Delivery:** cabling, active network, security and workstations in windows outside opening hours, in the evening or at weekends.
- **Operation:** support, monitoring (24/7 on Premium 365), restore tests and reporting to demonstrate compliance.

## Frequently asked questions in Coimbra

### Do you have experience with clinics and healthcare units?

Yes, healthcare is a significant part of DataRoad's work. We manage clinical equipment segmentation, separate patient networks, encryption and access logging at clinics such as Lambert and Clínica Mulher. See our [experience in IT for clinics](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/it-support-for-clinics/).

### What do you do with clinical equipment that cannot be updated?

We isolate it in its own network segment, with firewall rules that only let through what it needs to communicate, and monitor that segment continuously. The device keeps running on the system the manufacturer certified, without exposing the rest of the network.

### Does this take care of GDPR?

It takes care of the technical side: encryption, access control and logging, tested backups and documentation. The legal side, such as consents, the data protection officer and contracts, stays with your adviser, with whom DataRoad works so that the technical evidence meets what the law requires.

### Can you connect two sites?

Yes, with a secure link between locations and access to the same systems from either site, under central management. Each site keeps its own internal segmentation and monitoring covers both as a single environment.

### Does DataRoad have an office in Coimbra?

No. Our headquarters are in Alfragide and support covers the whole country: most of the service is delivered remotely, with an immediate response, and on-site support is included in the Premium and Premium 365 plans. The Essential plan is remote and telephone only. We also host companies from other countries in Portugal and work hand in hand with embassies.

### How is the price calculated?

[IT Unlimited](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/it-unlimited-premium-on-site-support/) sets a monthly fee by scope, with no call counting. Plans start from €395/month + VAT (Essential), €750 (Premium) and €1,200 (Premium 365). The contract is annual and no lock-in.
